Sanjad-Sakati Syndrome: Oral Health Care

Objectives: The aim of this report is to describe the orofacial manifestations and dental management of a girl with Sanjad-Sakati syndrome. Clinical Presentation and Intervention: The facial features included microcephaly, thin lips, beaked nose, low set ears, and a retrognathic mandible. An oral examination revealed oligodontia/hypodontia, small dental arches, a high arched palate, and a deep overbite and increased overjet. Oral rehabilitation involved full coverage prosthetic crowns on the upper central incisors, stainless steel crowns on the lower molars, and removable partial prostheses to replace missing teeth. Conclusion: Recognition of orofacial features might help in the diagnosis of Sanjad-Sakati syndrome. Dental management of affected patients might be complicated by intellectual, neurological, and endocrine abnormalities. (C) 2018 The Author(s) Published by S. Karger AG, Basel
